Ja THE PREACHER'S FRUIT (Sy Peter McArthur) Once upon a time--- you see 1 k.ow how to begin a story to the rigbt way --a barefoot boy danced by the road- side mad shouts: gleefully. It was In Canada, back In the nineteenth cen- tury, In the pioneer days. The little boy was healthy and freckled find what be lacked to clothes he made up In the kind of body one would bave Inside of clothes. And he was very. very happy. in fact he was so happy that a pawing friend stopped to ask him the cause of 1t all. "Hurray!" shouted he of the freckles. "Why so happy?" asked the friend. "The preacher is coming to dinner!" "1 didn't know you were so fond of him." "1 ain't, but whenever the preacher comes to dinner ae always have peach preserves." It really 1s not much of • story and I am giving 1t on account of its arch- eolog-Ical interest and not because It is so very fanny. It dates back to the days when people merely knew that peaches are the best of fruits and had not discovered that Canada is the best place to raise the very best of them. The woman who was fortunate enough to get some from a sheltered orchard or from a lone tree that was so fortunately situated that it escaped the frost put up a few to have for such special occasions as the visit of the preacher. In those days the minister was a much more welcome visitor on the farm than the agent of get -rich -quick concerns and mining promoters and thee is a moral to that 1f i only had time 14 work it out. Because peaches were saved for such extra special occasions • tradition has grown up about them in many parts of the cottntry. Some housewives. otherwise very bright. and a credit to the Farmer's Institutes to which they belong. consider it an eztrsvagance to preserve peaches un- less they get them at sacrifice price. Yet these same women will pay trues ten to fifteen cents a quart for cur- rants and berries that need far more sugar to do them up than the already sweet peaches. As peaches usually come in eleven -quart baskets you trill 11nd if you divide the price by eleven that peaches cost less per quart t.. in any other fruit. But because they were once so great a luxury house- wives are slow to realize that they should have more of them than of any kind of trust, for they are both the cheapest and the best. There 1s no reaion why every farmer's wife In the districts where peaches cannot be grown should not buy them as freely as they do other fruitswad have them not only when the preacher comes to dinner but when the boys and girls come home from .he city and at all other times when they want to have something luxurious on the table. Also It should be remembered that for eating from the hand the peach la the best fruit of 1.11, but you peaches rise for this purpose that you buy in the full Itgbt of day Once upon a Om, or perhaps I should Fog "Once ape another time," a ae Ty arrived iFishman went out with a friend to steal peaches. It was dark and Pat had been told to grope along the branches for the fruit. Presently he whispered, "Molts!'" His friend answered "Phwat!" "Has patches got lege!" "Naw." "Then begoles i've swallowed a straddle tug." II G. OAMRROl6. L 0.. J1ABRIB- L.

STOWE The Lucknow 8entioel tells • inti. story of a Fair of die -bards, members of the Lucknow bowling fraternity, who attended the recent tournament at Walkerton. Their oink had lost and the pair had retired to tho quiet of their room and had gone to bed. Owing to the crowded condition of the bouse they had to double up -both occupying the iced. The game was being played over again in imagina- tion and conveseatlen, is which ways it M so fatally easy to play well and win. Presently a dispute arose as to which of the two was the better play- er. In imagination each could see himself leyirg • shot right up ■gainit the •'cat,'• putting on just the right kind of a guard, in short playing all around his antagonist. Neither would yield an iota, they couldn't sleep and they couldn't wait. They bowled. but it wasn't as easy on the green se it had been on the pillow, and one, of course, had to acknowledge defeat. Then they walked back to the hotel, crawled into bed and slept the sleep rat the satiated. Thee men should sect to war: Not Dangerous.
